Donald Trump Demands Elon Musk Rescue Stranded Astronauts In Shocking Move

January 29, 2025

Former US President Donald Trump has sparked a fresh controversy by asking billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk to rescue two American astronauts, Sunita Williams and Butch Wilmore, who he claims have been abandoned in space by the Biden administration.

According to reports, Trump took to social media to urge Musk, who is also the CEO of SpaceX, to "go get" the astronauts, claiming that they are stranded in space due to the alleged incompetence of the current administration.

Trump's tweet, which has since gone viral, has sparked a heated debate about the role of private companies in space exploration and the relationship between the government and the private sector.

The tweet also raises questions about the current status of the astronauts in question, with many experts suggesting that Trump's claims are exaggerated or inaccurate.

Sunita Williams, a veteran NASA astronaut, has spent a total of 322 days in space over the course of her career, while Butch Wilmore, a former NASA astronaut, has spent over 167 days in space.

Despite Trump's claims, there is no evidence to suggest that either astronaut is currently stranded in space or that the Biden administration has abandoned them.

Elon Musk, who has been at the forefront of private space exploration through his company SpaceX, has not responded to Trump's tweet, but his company has been working closely with NASA on various projects, including the development of a new spacecraft capable of taking astronauts to the Moon and beyond.

The incident has also sparked a renewed debate about the role of social media in politics, with many critics accusing Trump of using his platform to spread misinformation and create controversy.

As the controversy continues to unfold, it remains to be seen how Musk and SpaceX will respond to Trump's demands, and what implications this may have for the future of space exploration and the relationship between the government and private sector.
